Dominique Morisseau Cancels Los Angeles Production of Paradise Blue Due to Reports of Workplace Abuse

Playbill: Dominique Morisseau has pulled the Los Angeles premiere of her Paradise Blue at Geffen Playhouse, claiming a number of abuses against Black women took place behind the scenes. In a Facebook post, the Tony-nominated playwright said “harm was allowed to fester. Grow. And go unchecked. I caught wind of it, as I was not involved in the process. I then investigated it personally. And ultimately, refused to stand for it.”
